Akureyri by Night

It seemed a waste of daylight not to go out exploring the town. Never mind that I'd been travelling non-stop all day, and hadn't eaten anything since lunchtime in Vík.

At 11 pm, almost everything downtown is closed - the 66° Norður store, the restaurants, even the 10-11 (naturally). Young people are drag racing down the main street.

Our favourite supermarket chain



I reached the edge of town, just as the Domino's Pizza closed. The Bónus supermarket was long shut, so it looks like granola bars back at the hostel for dinner, and then a few hours of sleep before another long day tomorrow.
